UI feedback on tiny control

@dannytaurus Looks fine sublime to me. You could also use a combo box, or a scroll box.

Any other ideas for choosing between 3 waves in that control area?

Could also be a 3 pos knob

Looks fine! Especially for something like an LFO selection.

See how tiny the Ableton dropdown selection boxes and multiple choice buttons are in the background?

Very good!

Yeah, I thought about a combo box but that's essentially what this already is - an 'always open' combo box.

Yeah, I tried a 3-pos knob but since all the other knobs are continuous, having one that only has 3 positions feels a bit weird. Especially since I don't want to put markers around that one knob to denote the positions.

Very good point! I've always disliked the Ableton UI for that reason but the point is, that's what folks will be used to I guess.

@dannytaurus I like it, looks smooth

You could make the wavetable blend between the 3 different shapes, meaning a continuous knob still makes sense ??

@Orvillain Yep, that's on the list for a Plus version of the plugin. This is the trimmed-down free version.

Although I have no idea yet how to use a wavetable as an LFO. Fun future project!

@dannytaurus You could just make a Script Time Variant Modulator and blend between 3 oscillators directly in the network. But yeah, a wavetable should be a fun exercise!
